    i know this video is older but I just saw it tonight and my tip (in return for your wonderful help) is that if you tap your screen while in camera mode it will set your focus. Now, if you tap+hold the selection it will lock the white balance AND focus area. That way it doesnt want to re-focus when your other hand comes closer to the lens. The iphone also has pre-loaded filters in camera mode. :)

    At 2:32: What you describe as fanning the bristles I'll never forget as splaying the brush. It was something I learned from a Paula Begoun makeup instruction book, where she said never to do that when applying cosmetics. Anyway, I have to live with streaky nails until this weekend when I can redo them per your instructions. Thanks for sharing your expertise!

    Hi! I know this video is not so recent, but I really wanted to thank you for posting it!
    I was starting to doubt my capacity to paint my nails because i was always flooding my skin and then ruining them trying to clean up.
    Even though your video wasnt specifically meant to teach how to paint within the lines, I took your advice about the amount of polish and how to do the strokes, and it's working perfect! I tried it already 3 times and I barely have to clean up anymore. I seriously can't believe it!

    Wow 😍 this is amazing. Thank you for explaining this in depth about the angles and the bit about painting a room and the paint peeling off. I'm a visual person and that really helped me grasp the concept. QUESTION: does it matter if we finish the whole hand while the individual nails dry(between coats)? Like 5 nails, one coat each. Circle back to the first nail and start second coats.

    • @meticulousmanicurist
      @meticulousmanicurist  3 года назад

      the only time you need for drying between coats is the time it takes to polish the other hand. Go right back to the opposite hand after you polish ;)

  • @lauraklinglesmith4894

    You may have covered this already but how do you stop lines in metallic polish? The best I can do is to get the lines straight. Also, I'm an amateur and have considered taking nail training because I love doing my nails. I'd love a video about what starting out in the business is like. Here in Kentucky (Louisville) the schools require a full cosmetology degree and won't allow just esthetics and nail technician training. I've got a very bad back (19 years in healthcare) and I cannot stand for prolonged periods so that pretty much puts a complete degree out of the realm of possibilities. I love your videos because you give proper technique. I'd love to hear more about the business side of things also. It's not covered enough.

      @stephanielittell4783 6 лет назад +1

      Laura Klinglesmith I’ve heard that if you first use a matte top and then a shiny top coat that it sort of disguises the lines. I think I saw a video and it did appear to work but I’ve never tried it.

      @AlucardPeach 6 лет назад +10

      Never put nail polish remover in it! It'll evaporate and gum up your polish. You can get nail polish thinner at any beauty supply store and it's cheap. I have that problem as well, even with brand new high quality (OPI and up) polishes

    Heey! Are you supposed to wait for the polish to completely dry before applying the top coat?

      If you apply the coats of polish thin, they will be dry enough to apply the top coat in 30 seconds.

    I have small hands and nails, how can I use this technique without flooding the sides of my nails? Would you recommend a smaller brush? Thanks for this, the technique is clever!
